Heh. So you totally get it!
I think a lot of his fear is that he and D totally get each other and he sees himself in D and there's this fear that if it is a girl, that's going to be harder. Because girl=different! Which is total BS because growing up, me & dad were such the evil team of interests and plotting. J and dad have always had a harder time relating and they are so alike but neither can see it. At the same time, I'm probably more like my mom in some ways,yet ours was an easy relationship. It's all about personality and the thing is? Each kid has its own unique relationship with the parent.
Remind me to never, ever , ever buy a car from Donahoo Motors. Their ads are so fricking awful.
When I leave work angry every night because the administrivia seems to be swallowing the science, it's really time to look for another job.
Aw, sweetie. I'm sorry. I'm glad you have their backs, but I'm sorry it's such a battle. See it everyday, think it is so stupid.
Allyson, so sorry about the evil job. ita, so sorry about the evil migraine. Kalshane, YAY new job.
I'm caught up in Natter! That made me smile. Also the fact that it's National Pie Day, which clearly means I should go to the Cocos down the street and have pie.
Then, on friday, it's the hopefully-gender-find-out ultrasound.
Squee! My baby spoilers are on Thursday.
I don't really have a gender preference, but growing up in a family where the 3 oldest are all girls, having my first be a boy would just be weird. Baby boys are what you have when you already have enough girls!
Unrelatedly, why is Gilmore Girls sucking? The only storyline I like right now is Lane and Zach, and her
GIANT FAKE PREGNANCY BELLY
is really interfering with my ability to pay attention to it.
I had no pie, but I did have a brownie with ice cream on top. I shall declare it a successful Pie Day celebration.
Squee! My baby spoilers are on Thursday.
Awesome! We'll have a spoilerfest! I'm so excited for you and E. Lotsa babies for neat people is always fun. And I think this year is definitely providing that.

You probably already know this, but they can pee
up!
Heh.
Laughed myself hysterical that the first time brother changed the neph's diaper (it was something like the third, with nurses responsible for the first two) he got peed on. Even better was the fact I witnessed it! You'd think, but no.
I totally agree, Jess. Her
pregnancy belly is way too perfectly round -- it's like they just stuck an exercise ball under her shirt or something
.

Oh yes -- hence the invention of the pee pee teepee.
